KPR, Geological Survey among programs hit by KU cuts Provost: More budget adjustments will be made later this year

By Peter Hancock phancock@ljworld.com

Kansas Public Radio and the Kansas Geological Survey are among the programs at the University of Kansas that will take significant budget cuts this

year as the university tries to absorb a $7 million funding cut from the state that Gov. Sam Brownback ordered in May. Meanwhile, officials at the

KU Medical Center in Kansas City, Kan., said they will face significant hardships this year as they try to absorb an additional $3.7 million cut in state

beast than wellmannered British schoolboys. The ending, as anyone who endured a high-school English class will tell you, is decidedly bleak.

City fails to win grant for transit hub By Rochelle Valverde rvalverde@ljworld.com

Lawrence was not awarded a federal grant that would have covered half the cost of its proposed transit hub, sending those involved in the project back into discussions about its scale and location. The city announced Wednesday that it had not been awarded a $15 million federal transportation grant. City transit leaders said the news will mean an overhaul of previous plans. The first question is whether plans will still call for a “multimodal” facility that comprises a parking garage, bicycle storage

activity so much, we’re looking for a place where we can get buses in and out.” Such a plan would be much simpler than what was previously being discussed. Lawrence and University of Kansas transit leaders had been considering a parking lot in front of KU’s Ambler Student Recreation Fitness Center as the site for a new central transfer hub. The cost of the project was estimated at approximately $30 million, and in addition to the multimodal components, possibilities included room for retail space as well as the transit system’s administrative offices. > HUB, 2A

Mayor Mike Amyx said it’s apparent to him that some kind of hub is needed, and he anticipates that the scale of the project will be discussed among commissioners and city staff at a future work session. “What are the things that we really need and what are the things that maybe we can’t afford to go in and do at this point?” Amyx said. “I think just have a really hard look, along with our advisory board, and just see where we are right now.” In addition to exactly what facilities the transit hub will consist of, its location is also an unknown. Lawrence and KU officials have said they do not plan to move forward with the location in front of the fitness center. “At this point we do not have a location we’re even looking at,” Nugent said. “We did a transit center location analysis about four years ago now. Everything that we found in that study we’ve pretty much exhausted over the last three years or so.” Previously proposed locations for the transit hub have included locations near 21st and Iowa streets, Ninth and Iowa streets and within KU’s new central district. Nugent said that the city and KU will be meeting to discuss alternate sites for the hub, but a date for those meetings has yet to be set. More than likely, though, Nugent said a hub would be on or near KU’s campus. “The largest generator of trips in our community is KU, so for us to not locate something around KU may not work to the advantage of KU, and the students, faculty and staff there,” Nugent said. Meanwhile, ridership in Lawrence is up slightly. Between 2010 and 2015, the number of riders per year has increased by about 80,000. In fact, with about 2.9 million riders in 2015, Lawrence received the award for the highest ridership among public transit systems in Kansas from the Federal Transit Administration. Another big issue facing the transit system is that the sales tax approved by voters in 2008 to fund the system came with a 10-year sunset. Voters are likely going to be asked to approve a renewal of that sales tax in 2017 or 2018. Amyx said that a decision on at least a location for the transit hub should come before a vote. “I think it’s still got to be our priority that we have at least a location and even proceeding with a hub facility before we go into the vote,” Amyx said. “We obviously said that the sales tax money is going to be used to fund that, and so there’s an expectation there.” The transit hub plays a key role in that vote because it could allow for more efficient routes. Transit leaders have been holding off on the work of redesigning transit routes until they know where the system’s hub is going to be located.

complex was granted its temporary occupancy permit last week, but 90 tenants have been waiting on the completion of floors 7 and 8. Inspectors with the City of Lawrence approved the remaining floors for occupancy Tuesday, according to Scott McCullough, the city’s director of planning and development services.

Dog removed from home; owner faces animal cruelty charge P

olice officers are there to stick up for those who can’t always stick up for themselves. Sometimes those who need to be protected aren’t even bipedal. What began as a call for police to check on a disturbance earlier this month ended up with a small dog being taken away from its owner, court documents say. Just before midnight on Aug. 1 a couple of Lawrence police officers were dispatched to a trailer on North Michigan Street, in reference to a disturbance, according to an arrest affidavit filed in Douglas County District Court. An arrest affidavit is a document filed by police explaining the grounds for an arrest. Allegations in an affidavit must

in the entryway. As dogs are wont to do when strangers enter their domain, the Chihuahua started barking. Then the officers watched the man “grab the leash attached to the dog’s collar and lift the dog off the ground,” the affidavit says. They yelled for him to drop the Chihuahua. The man “held the dog in the air for a brief moment before dropping the leash to the ground,” the affidavit says. It was around this time that the officers noticed the man was likely “very intoxicated,” the affidavit says. Throughout the encounter he nearly fell to the ground several times and his speech was slurred and slow, police said. As police questioned him, the man denied that there

had been a disturbance, the affidavit says, and he held the Chihuahua in his arm. “During the conversation,” the affidavit says, the man “dropped his left arm and threw the dog backwards onto the floor.” The officers said they saw “the dog hit the hardwood floor, landing on his neck and back,” and the man “showed no remorse or acknowledgement of throwing the dog to the ground.” The man was arrested at the scene and booked into the Douglas County Jail. He was released on Aug. 3 after posting a $500 bond. The Chihuahua was removed from the home and taken to the Lawrence Humane Society. Kate Meghji, executive director at the Lawrence

Humane Society, said the Chihuahua, whose name is D’artagnen, is still in the shelter and is currently on the mend. He is currently recovering from an upper-respiratory infection, she said. D’artagnen’s owner released the dog into the shelter’s custody, Meghji said. Now he can be rehabilitated and then transferred to an out-of-state rescue organization. A single misdemeanor charge of cruelty to animals was filed against the man. He is scheduled to appear in court on Aug. 30, when a date for his trial will be set. — This is an excerpt from Conrad Swanson’s Lights & Sirens column, which appears regularly on LJWorld. com.

That’s Republican groups who

helped save U.S. Sen. Pat Roberts’ struggling re-election campaign that same year. Davis said he’s had a lot of time to think about what happened in 2014. “You learn a lot when you run an unsuccessful campaign,” he said. “When you are successful in a campaign, you think you did everything right, and you probably did a number of things wrong. When you are not successful, you tend to take some more time to analyze what all happened. “We certainly were swimming upstream in a tough political year across the country, in particular in a red state like Kansas,” he said. But Democrats also lost five more seats in the Kansas House in 2014, leaving them with only 27. And after losing every statewide and congressional race in each of the

last three election cycles, they don’t have a deep bench from which to find another viable candidate for governor. Republicans, however, have a wealth of political talent on their bench. So far, most of the speculation has focused on Secretary of State Kris Kobach and Attorney General Derek Schmidt, both of whom have been elected to statewide offices twice. And there continues to be talk about U.S. Rep. Lynn Jenkins, the 2nd District congresswoman whom Potter would like to beat this year. But it’s considered a long-shot race at best. Davis acknowledged that the Kansas Democratic Party has a lot of work to do if it hopes to rebuild its own strength in the Legislature, which is often the place where candidates for higher office are groomed.

Specifically, he said Democrats have good chances in some southeast Kansas districts, an area of the state where Democrats once were quite strong. And he said southwest Kansas, with its rapidly growing Latino population, could become competitive in the near future. “You have a number of legislative districts there that are majorityminority districts,” he said, referring to districts where a majority of the voting-age population are non-white, and therefore statistically more likely than not to vote Democratic. “People just need to be engaged by people who are running for office and engaged by political parties.”

Flies

invites audiences into the hearts, minds and psyches of girls growing up in contemporary America. Klickstein, worried about the outcome of “two guys in their thirties writing a play about a bunch of young girls,” knew the project needed a dose of realism in order to work. That’s when he and other Orange Mouse crewmates — among them producer Cynthia Evans, assistant director Kalee Forsythe

and director Leah Towle — decided to enlist real girls in the writing process. So, they hosted a series of workshops starting in early 2016 that asked students, ranging in age from 8 to 16, “What’s it really like to be a girl?” The sessions not only led to more accurate language — with youthful phrases like “butthead” and “peeps” being added to the mix — and characters, but also plenty of frank and enlightening discussions of real issues facing today’s teens and tweens. “It offers them a place to have their ideas listened to,” Towle said. At 22, she’s not much older than her young cast, and remembers well the social pressures and general tumult of girlhood. Throughout the development process, Klickstein has seen girls speak honestly about the kind of emotional and mental violence enacted against girls, by girls. It may not be behavior they engage in personally, but it’s still a concern. “The girls were really able to open up and talk about issues that maybe they wouldn’t feel as

comfortable talking about elsewhere,” Klickstein said. “They really told some compelling stories and were very forthright and extremely articulate about their emotionalities and what they’re going through, whether they’re 8 or 16.” “We’re creating something with these ideas, with these concerns and questions,” he added. “That’s a socializing skill that I believe is very important.” “Ladies of the Fly” is really a play within a play about a group of girls who, much like the project’s real cast, are working together on a remake of “Lord of the Flies.” At first, they assume character as part of the workshop process (it’s also taking place at the Cider Gallery, but in the middle of a snowstorm that traps the girls inside for eight days with no adult supervision) but eventually discard their own identities as food and supplies dwindle. By the end, the characters have fully become their play-within-a-play characters, who in lieu of names have been given dehumanizing descriptors like “Nerdy Girl” or “Sporty Girl.” When

one girl is accidentally killed near the play’s finale, another character wonders aloud what the deceased girl’s real name was. As happens so often in classrooms and other adolescent spaces (and, it could be argued, in the lives of grown-up women as well), the girls are reduced to one-note stereotypes. Allison Wilson, a junior at Lawrence High School, plays the role of “Non-Binary.” The character, in a very contemporary nod to changing societal mores on gender, identifies as neither male nor female, which of course sets them apart from their peers. Wilson, who is openly gay, can relate to the frustration of feeling different from others, even among friends. But she’s found a safe space on the “Ladies of the Fly” stage. “At first, we were kind of shy around each other, and now we’re just like a big family,” said Wilson, 16. “It’s nice.” “Our differences make us an interesting group, I guess.”

the Wakarusa River. Browning said he estimates the extension would cost $8 million to build, although a KDOT consulting firm placed that cost at $6 million. With the project on the county’s CIP, Commissioner Nancy Thellman said it was time for the county to share its plan with the Lawrence City Commission and request that the city share in the cost. “My impression is there’s not really an understanding of why this might be a city project and not a county project,” she said. Browning said he would follow up on that request. He said Lawrence Public

Works Director Charles Soules did acknowledge the importance of the project to the city in an earlier conversation. Browning has said in the past that a Wakarusa Drive extension would better connect the city and the southwest portion of the county and would improve access to the city’s Youth Sports Complex, Eagle Bend Golf Course, the adult softball complex, the dog park and other recreation facilities either on or planned for the 1,515 acres the city leases east of Clinton Dam. The big project slated for 2017 is the $5.95 million upgrade to County Road 458 between East 800 and East 1000 roads. Browning said the coun-

ty was “still shooting” to complete that work next year. Work will include addition of paved shoulders on the section, installation of longer culverts and the realignment of three sharp curves to the 55 mph standards. To stay on the 2017 schedule, the county would have to relocate utilities and acquire rightof-way, Browning said. The county would hire an appraiser for the latter process, which Browning said would start this fall. The county has applied for $2.2 million to help with the project, which would reduce the county’s cost to $3.75 million, Browning said. Other significant road

projects in the CIP are: l $2 million in improvements in 2018 to County Road 1055 from the Wakarusa River bridge south to CR 458. The project would reconstruct the roadway with paved shoulders. l $900,000 in improvements in 2019 to County Road 1029 west of Lone Star Lake from County Road 10 and CR 458. l $1.2 million of improvements to CR 458 between East 1500 and East 1600 roads, projected for 2019. The project would reconstruct the roadway with paved shoulders and reduce the grade of steep hills in the section. l The $1.35 million realignment of a curve on

Whether or not the novel’s outcome — which includes one character’s brutal death at the hands of his increasingly desperate and paranoid peers — would have been any different if it were girls on the island instead of boys is one of many questions raised by Orange Mouse Theatricals’ “Ladies of the Fly,” opening Friday at the Cider Gallery, 810 Pennsylvania St. The play isn’t so much a remake of “Lord of the Flies” but a re-imagining, said Mathew Klickstein, who co-wrote “Ladies of the Fly” with help from local scribe Justin Martinez and the input of approximately a dozen Douglas County girls. “So much of ‘Lord of the Flies’ has such a masculine component to it,” he said. “I just thought it would be really intriguing to see what would happen with this play if it was done from a female perspective.” The result is a onehour immersive theatrical experience that

By participants, event coordinator Sigurdson doesn’t mean just those performing concerts or those entered in the competitions for fiddling, folk singing, guitar, banjo and other instruments. She is referring to those creating a musical community by adding to the music on the instruments they bring or simply being moved to dance. The event is an invitation for musicians and the less musically inclined to share in the spirit through jam sessions, open-microphone stage and workshops and games, Sigurdson said. “We don’t think music or any part of our culture should be a spectator sport,” Sigurdson said. “Anybody can sing, and anybody can dance. That’s the whole point of the weekend.” The attitude starts early with two “pre-parties” Friday evening. The early musical gathering will be from 6 to 9 p.m. at The Replay Lounge, 946 Massachusetts St., and at Fatso’s, 1016 Massachusetts St. The Americana Music Academy, 1419 Massachusetts St., will be the home of Saturday’s activities, which start at 2 p.m. and continue until dusk. The main event starts at noon Sunday at South Park. Activities include the competitions that give the event its name, plus concerts and an afternoon-long open jam session. Sigurdson said vendors will offer handcrafted musical instruments, crafts and food and drinks. Dave Barton and Cathy Para, of Booneville, Mo., will return to the children’s area with workshops in homemade toys and found instruments. In the event of heavy rain, the contests will be moved to the Lawrence Community Building, 115 W. 11th St., but the other events will be canceled. — County reporter Elvyn Jones can be reached at 832-7166.

Cuts CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

But she indicated more adjustments will be made to academic units and other KU programs as the year progresses. “Despite these measures, unfortunately, we will have to leave several open positions unfilled across campus,” she said in a statement provided to the JournalWorld. “We recognize this will reduce some levels of service. It’s more important now than ever that we function as a team and support one another.” The $1.3 million cuts announced Wednesday make up less than half of all the cuts that will need to be made on the Lawrence and Edwards campuses this year, Bendapudi said. Additional cuts to administrative and academic units as well as other line-item cuts, which were not outlined Wednesday, will total nearly $3.8 million, or about 59 percent of all the cuts this year. The cuts announced Wednesday include: l $400,200 in the “faculty cluster hire program.” l $311,600 for the Kansas Geological Survey. l $300,000 reduction for International Programs. l $100,000 each to Kansas Public Radio and to Audio Reader, a reading service for the blind and visually impaired. l And $70,000 to the Kansas Fire and Rescue Training Institute located on the Edwards campus in Overland Park. Jill Hummels, a spokeswoman for the provost’s office, said the remaining cuts won’t be announced until after the official enrollment headcount is completed in September because funding for several programs, including programs in the Business and Engineering schools, is based on enrollment. She said the faculty cluster hire program is part of KU’s strategic plan known as “Bold Aspirations.” The idea was to hire faculty from a variety of disciplines who focus on a common theme, such as water resources, in order to generate more innovative research. The $400,200 cut will mean three of the five remaining budgeted positions will go unfilled, Bendapudi said.

“

It’s more important now than ever that we function as a team and support one another.”

— Provost Neeli Bendapudi

Dan Skinner, general manager of Kansas Public Radio, said direct university support amounts to only about 24 percent of the radio station’s total budget, but the cut to KPR represents onefourth of that university support. Audio Reader, on the other hand, relies more heavily on university support, and the $100,000 cut represents one-fifth of the university’s support. “I just found out today and I’ve been letting my staff know today, so haven’t been able to determine exactly what it means for us,” Skinner said. “We’ll examine our budget and look for cost savings. It is significant but not devastating. We’ll still be able to provide a quality product. But we’ll have to look for cost control and additional fundraising.” Audio Reader is a broadcast service that is carried on a subfrequency of the radio station’s FM signal. It is accessible through special receivers that are made available at no charge for people who qualify. It is also available through streaming audio online and with some smartphone apps. Skinner said the service, which is available statewide, serves at least 8,000 individuals. It relies on a large pool of volunteers who read books and local newspapers on the air. Skinner noted that Audio Reader’s annual fundraiser is scheduled for Sept. 9-10 at the Douglas County Fairgrounds. “For Your Ears Only” is a sale of used audio equipment, turntables, vinyl records and other recordings. Susan Gronbeck-Tedesco, associate vice provost for International Programs, said her department would absorb the cut by not filling seven of 13 positions that are currently vacant. The International Programs unit operates the Applied English Center for non-English speaking students and scholars. It also recruits international students to study at KU and operates KU’s study abroad program. Officials at the Fire and Rescue Training Institute were not immediately available Wednesday. The institute is part of the Department of Professional and Continuing Education.

Program directors react Rex Buchanan, interim director of the Kansas Geological Survey, said the cut to his program will not have an immediate impact on its major operations, KU Med Center The announcement which include monitoring earthquake activity in south-central Kansas and annual measurements of water levels in the Ogallala Aquifer in western Kansas. But he said it could delay KGS’s plans to expand its branch office in Wichita, which houses a unit that monitors oil and gas wells. And it will probably hurt the program’s ability to replace and retain its scientific staff. “The big deal here is not this one cut, but the whole series of them,” Buchanan said. “The cumulative cuts are what’s crippling.”

about cuts at the Lawrence campus came just days after Doug Girod, executive vice chancellor for the KU Medical Center, posted a statement on the medical school’s website saying the $3.7 million cuts at that campus would create serious difficulties this year. “While our campus did what was necessary, these budget reductions have limited the institution’s ability to make important investments in the areas of personnel, infrastructure, outreach and new educational technologies and strategies,” he stated. Although Girod did not provide specific dollar amounts for the cuts being made, he said they would include eliminating centrally funded salary increases; reductions in the number of support staff, reductions in slots for the M.D./ Ph.D. program and the post-doctoral program; cuts to information technology; and reduced outreach throughout the state, including clinical outreach flights, teacher training programs and summer high school science programs.

Balancing state budget In May, when Brownback signed the final budget bill that lawmakers passed, he also ordered $97 million in spending cuts to that budget in order to balance it with expected revenues for this fiscal year. That translated to a 4 percent cut for most state agencies and programs other than K-12 education and public safety functions. That included 4 percent, or $23.6 million, to the six universities governed by the Kansas Board of Regents. KU and Kansas State University, however, took proportionately larger cuts of about 5 percent each. Republican leaders in the Legislature put that stipulation in the budget bill, knowing in advance that Brownback would have to order cuts, as a way to protect the smaller universities that rely more heavily on state funding for their overall operating budgets than the larger research institutions do.

Divorce shouldn’t destroy father’s ties to sons Dear Annie: I am a 70-year-old man with two adult sons. My wife and I divorced eight years ago after 30 years together. It was simply a case of two people having grown apart over the years and seeking different things in life. She had insisted that we move to the East Coast to be nearer to her family. I had no desire to either move cross-country to an uncertain future or live near her troubled family. I always felt that because we have children, our relationship should be civil, if not amicable. But for some inexplicable reason, she has disparaged and defamed me to anyone who will listen, especially our kids. She cut off all contact with me and poisoned my younger son’s mind

with all manner of lies and distortions, such that he cut off all contact with me, too. Curiously, my own mother did the exact same thing many years ago when she and my father divorced. Annie, I have always believed that if you love your children, you should encourage them to have a good relationship with the other parent. So I am mystified by this kind of behavior. Can

‘Sunday’ Night Football? If it’s Thursday, it must be Sunday. Tomorrow, Friday passes for Thursday. We’re talking football. Let me explain. With the Olympics over, NBC looks forward to the ratings bonanza of “Sunday Night Football.” So much so that it’s airing a preseason game between the Miami Dolphins and the Atlanta Falcons tonight (7 p.m.). CBS will return to its “Thursday Night Football” lineup on Sept. 15, with a week two game between the New York Jets and the Buffalo Bills. The first game of the NFL season, between the Carolina Panthers and the Denver Broncos, will air on Thursday, Sept. 8. But it will air on NBC. The “Thursday Night Football” lineup will air throughout the 16-game season, concluding Dec. 22 with a game between the New York Giants and Philadelphia Eagles. But games will air on CBS and the NFL Network for half of the season, or until Oct. 20. After that, the games will then air only on the NFL Network. And, just to make matters more complicated, starting Nov. 17, the Thursday night games will air on both the NFL Network and NBC. Isn’t that crystal clear? So, just to get things straight, Thursday night’s NFL action belongs to CBS. Except when it doesn’t. On a related note, “Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders: Making the Team” (8 p.m., CMT, TV-PG) enters its 11th season. O If football isn’t manly enough for you, there’s the second night of the sweet 16 round of “BattleBots” (7 p.m., ABC, TV-PG). There’s nothing like machines smashing each other to get the blood racing. A&E continues its obsession with incarceration on the season two premiere of “Behind Bars: Rookie Year” (9 p.m., TV-14), a docuseries about corrections officers. The third season premiere of “Rugged Justice” (9 p.m., Animal Planet, TV-14) chronicles efforts to save stranded cougar cubs. O “I Love Kellie Pickler” (9 p.m., CMT, TV-PG) enters its second season. Tonight: bungee jumping and matchmaking. O The real and the fake mingle as Virginia Sen. Tim Kaine, the actual Democratic candidate for vice president, appears on “The Late Show With Stephen Colbert” (11:35 p.m., CBS) with actor Tony Hale, who plays a groveling, spineless assistant to the first female president on HBO’s “Veep.” Colbert is the perfect person to host this odd pairing. He has enjoyed greater success playing a fake Bill O’Reilly-like blowhard than hosting a “real” talk show. Tonight’s other highlights

O Camila makes a strate-

gic retreat on “Queen of the South” (9 p.m., USA, TV-14). O Anna Kendrick and John Krasinski duke it out on “Lip Sync Battle” (9 p.m., Spike).

you explain it to me? — Puzzled in Los Angeles Dear Puzzled: You’re right that in a divorce, the best thing for the children is for both parents to stay civil. But there are two sides to every story, and I would question whether your divorce really was simply a case of two people growing apart. Your wife may feel differently. Thirty years is a long time to have everything unravel so uncivilly. She may have been really hurt by you. Reflect on that. Then talk to her. Perhaps you could bring up how your own mother did the same thing and explain how that negatively impacted you. If she is flat-out irrational and uninterested in compromise,

Scale it back The city would be wise to follow a review committee’s recommendations on affordable housing percentages.

he Public Incentives Review Committee is right to recommend scaling back the city of Lawrence’s affordable housing requirements in the city’s economic development incentives program. The recommendation decreases the maximum percent of residential units that developers seeking incentives would be required to set aside for affordable housing to 10 percent. The committee recommended the rules apply to projects of 10 or more units. That’s down from the proposal made by city staff, which called for any project with at least four residential units to set aside a range of units from 10 to 35 percent. For example, projects with 50 or more units would have had to set aside 35 percent under the previous Inclusionary proposal. zoning has been Committee used effectively in member Aron said other communities Cromwell the committee to increase felt that if the requirements the supply of too high, a affordable housing. are policy meant to But there also encourage afare countless fordable housing in Lawrence examples of might instead communities discourage it, overreaching and especially as it applies to maunintentionally jor projects. stifling new “The key is development to promote afor pushing it fordable housing, and if the into nearby goal post is too communities. high, no one is going to go for the incentives and no affordable housing is going to be built,” Cromwell said. For units set aside for affordable housing, the committee recommends that developers be required to charge incomebased rent for those units for the duration of the incentive period. The previous proposal said the units would have to remain affordable for no less than 15 years, even if the incentive period was shorter. National health rankings assess Lawrence’s affordable housing issue as a severe problem, and it was a topic of considerable discussion in the most recent city election. Inclusionary zoning has been used effectively in other communities to increase the supply of affordable housing. But there also are countless examples of communities overreaching and unintentionally stifling new development or pushing it into nearby communities. The City Commission will review the Public Incentive Review Committee’s recommendations at a meeting in October. Commission members who are advocates of affordable housing would be wise to carefully consider the review committee’s input.

How pundits helped break reality Ordinarily, I might gloat. Last week, a prominent conservative pundit conceded a point yours truly and countless others have been making for a long time. Namely, that in their constant assaults on mainstream news media, conservatives have wrecked the very idea of objective, knowable fact. In effect, they broke reality. And Donald Trump came oozing out of the ruins. “We’ve basically eliminated any of the referees, the gatekeepers,” said Wisconsin radio host Charlie Sykes in an interview excerpt that was tweeted by Oliver Darcy of Business Insider. The net effect, he said, is that Trump will say some stupid thing Sykes knows to be false, but that his listeners still expect him to parrot. And if he doesn’t, “then suddenly, I have sold out.” “When this is all over,” he mused, “we have to go back. There’s got to be a reckoning on all this. We’ve created this monster.” He added that, “At a certain point, you wake up and you realize you have destroyed the credibility of any credible outlet out there.” As a result, he said, conservatives “are reaping the whirlwind.” Sykes would want you

We have become a nation of junk history, junk science, junk fact, junk logic, junk thought, a nation where not knowing things is no longer a bar to high office ...” to know he is not backing down from the idea that mainstream news media are biased against conservatism. Nor should he. News media, like any institution created by human hands, harbor biases, including against the political right. I still remember the light that went on in my head when a conservative media critic decried the frequent use of the modifier “arch” to describe those who hold staunch rightwing views. After all, when’s the last time you heard some-

one on the left called an “arch liberal”? That’s one example: There are others. But instead of calling out biases in the mainstream media structure or simply creating a parallel media structure to tell their side of the story as women, African-Americans, LGBTQ people and other marginalized communities have done, conservatives sought instead to raze mainstream media to the ground. Sykes, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity and others advanced a narrative in which no institution or authoritative source — not statistics, not science, not history, not polls, not CBS, CNN, The Miami Herald, or The New York Times — is legitimate if it contradicts conservative orthodoxy or simply questions the latest harebrained conspiracy theory. The result has been nothing less than the unraveling of the American mind. We have become a nation of junk history, junk science, junk fact, junk logic, junk thought, a nation where not knowing things is no longer a bar to high office and may even be an advantage, a nation where it is necessary to debate whether a birth certificate is really a birth cer-

tificate and Donald Trump followers think the election will be “rigged.” Nor are bizarre conspiracy theories limited to the right. As anyone who has ever argued the supposed link between vaccines and autism can attest, they have infiltrated the left, too. This, then, is the legacy of modern conservatism: a nation where left and right have no real ability to communicate across the issues that divide because, in a fundamental sense, they have no language in common. We cannot confront our most pressing problems because we cannot even discuss them. It’s gratifying to hear Sykes admit conservative culpability, but any temptation to gloat is drowned by the reality of America’s plight. Don’t forget: We’ve now had a generation of young people come of age with ignorance, intransigence and incoherence as their daily norm. The damage from that is profound and will not be easily fixed. It took us years to get here. It will take years more to find our way home. — Leonard Pitts Jr., winner of the 2004 Pulitzer Prize for commentary, is a columnist for the Miami Herald.

PUBLIC FORUM

History complex To the editor: While remembering Quantrill’s raid (“Unique to us,” LJW, Aug. 21), Lawrencians ought to also consider what provoked this murderous hatred. Lawrence was indeed founded upon the “conviction that slavery must be abolished.” Prior to this raid, these freedom-fighters (or Jayhawkers) had committed a number of terrorist attacks to get this message across. William Quantrill and his band of bushwhackers may have been ruthless scoundrels, but they likely felt their violence was justified. By portraying the victims of Quantrill’s terror as totally innocent victims, your editorial not only distorts the historical record but also misrepresents the often morally messy fight for freedom. Ray Finch, Lawrence

Clinton ‘fact’ To the editor: In his Aug. 21 letter, Thomas Henderson writes, “Two people should be able to on any given topic agree on the basis of fact because facts are facts.” He then claimed it is a fact that Hillary Clinton was “found clear of responsibility in the Benghazi attacks.” That is not a fact. According to USA Today on Jan. 15, 2014, “Congressional Democrats for the first time joined the GOP to condemn the State Department for refusing security measures they say could have prevented the deaths of the U.S. ambassador and three other Americans in Benghazi.” Some claim the lack

of security should be blamed on Republicans, who allegedly cut security funding. PolitiFact on May 13, 2014, said this claim was “Mostly False.” According to a June 28 Chicago Tribune editorial on the U.S. House Select Committee on Benghazi report, “The crux of it is that during and well after the chaos of the attacks on the State Department’s outpost and nearby CIA annex in Benghazi, Clinton and the Obama administration promoted a false narrative for public consumption: that the violence came from a spontaneous outburst of mob anger.” Clinton refused to increase security in Libya, and then lied to the American people about what inspired the Benghazi attack. She was never cleared of responsibility. In fact, parents of two of the men killed at Benghazi are suing Clinton, saying her “‘extreme carelessness’ in handling confidential and classified information” contributed to the conditions that led to their sons’ deaths. Kevin Groenhagen, Lawrence

Rethink affordable To the editor: Regarding the recent Journal-World article “Committee recommendation scales back affordable housing requirements,” the city staff recommended using a sliding scale of 10 percent to 35 percent of new units be affordable, starting with a minimum of four units and increasing proportionately, so that for a building of 50 units the requirement would be 35 percent of affordable apartments. How disappointing, then, that the Public Incen-

tives Review Committee recommends lowering the maximum percentage to 10 percent affordable, for buildings at least 10 units in size. I expect that members of the “Public” Review Committee are not stressed in paying their rent, but, then again, they surely own their own homes. The committee claims that “such a high percentage to be set aside for affordable housing would be a deterrent for larger projects.” I would suggest in that case, to look for builders who are not working for profit alone. The community’s affordable housing need is dire. I hope the city will use their formula for assuring low-income housing will be a reasonable percentage of new units built, despite what the Review Committee advises. Barbara Johnston, Baldwin City

“Regarding parking, alternative solutions have been arranged for the eight days of football games and, based on how we are tracking with carsto-occupants ratio, we won’t need to displace any cars,” said Smith, who noted that just over half of the residents have signed parking leases. The $75 million luxury apartment complex at 11th and Mississippi streets currently has about 500 of its 624 bedrooms leased. More than 400 tenants were able to move in to their apartments Friday, two days after a revised move-in date of Aug. 17. The original move in date had been Aug. 7. Since then, city staff had been making regular visits to the site to determine whether contractors had completed the necessary building and safety codes required for the temporary occupancy permit. Now that the entire building has received that permit, McCullough said he anticipates that the contractor will begin work on the items on the permit’s conditions list. City inspectors in Fire-Medical, Public Works and Planning and Development Services noted about 25 items that need to be completed by Sept. 1 or earlier. The parking plan will also need to be approved by the City Commission before going forward. The complex’s final certificate of occupancy won’t be issued for another six to 12 months, and requires the completion of additional parking and the items in the temporary permit.

The remaining tenants will be allowed to move in over the next few days, with the final group of 20 tenants scheduled to move today and Friday, according to the project’s developers, CA Ventures. Many of the residents are students, and the first day of school at the University of Kansas was Monday. “It’s a busy and exciting time right now as we facilitate move-ins at HERE Kansas and focus on helping residents get settled into their new home as they start the school year,” said a statement from JJ Smith, chief operating officer at CA Ventures. The final occupancy permit for the project will require completion of work in and around the building, as well as an additional parking lot to remedy a parking shortage at the site. HERE and KU Endowment are negotiating a plan to build a 68-space surface parking lot at the corner of Mississippi Street and Fambrough Drive. HERE would then lease the lot from KU Endowment, which would have exclusive right to it for home football games, as well as for three other events per year. The statement from Smith said alternative parking arrangements will be made for HERE tenants for KU home football games. He said that some residents left their cars at home due to the complex’s proximity to KU and downtown Lawrence.

erything,” civil protection worker Andrea Gentili told the Associated Press. Italian Premier Matteo Renzi spoke Wednesday evening in the provincial capital of Rieti after flying over Le Marche region and visiting first responders and survivors in the town of Amatrice, one of the hardest hit. The AP reported the death toll at 159. The Italian news agency ANSA reported at least 35 dead in Amatrice, 11 in Accumoli, near Rieti, and 17 in the province of Ascoli Piceno, which includes Pescara del Tronto. Renzi reported 35 dead in Le Marche. Fabrizio Curcio, director of Italy’s civil protection agency, activated national emergency procedures. He said the quake was on par with one in L’Aquilla in 2009 that left more than 300 people dead. Much of the city center of Amatrice was covered with mounds of debris after structures tumbled in the initial quake and aftershocks. Residents of the popular tourist destination of about 3,000 people gathered in the pi-

Army Maj. Gen. David Haight, Army Ranger, decorated combat veteran and family man, held a key post in Europe this spring and a future with three, maybe four stars. He also led a double life: an 11year affair and a “swinger lifestyle” of swapping sexual partners that put him at risk of blackmail and espionage, according to interviews and documents. Jennifer Armstrong, 49, a government employee, said she and Haight had been involved in the torrid love affair that began more than 10 years ago in Baghdad and ended this spring. Badly. His secret discovered, Haight was investigated by the Army inspector general, who issued a report in April, and he was fired in May from his job running operations and plans at U.S. European Command, the Pentagon’s front-line bulwark against Russia. The Army hauled him back to Washington, reprimanded him based on ARMY an internal inDavid Haight vestigation and put him in a placeholder job awaiting retirement. A board will determine the rank that he last served honorably. A demotion to colonel or lower would cost him tens of thousands of dollars a year. Haight’s removal from European Command was not disclosed. It was revealed in July by USA TODAY, which received the Army inspector general’s report Wednesday after a Freedom of Information Act request. Armstrong, who told USA TODAY in interviews that the relationship began with a flirty email and ended after assignations with multiple partners at swingers’ clubs, hotels and her home, says Haight had promised a future together. “I gave him the best years of my life,” she said. In a statement issued after news of his reprimand broke, Haight vowed to work with Army investigators untangling his dark, off-duty life.

A woman is carried on a stretcher by rescuers in Amatrice, central Italy, where a magnitude-6.2 earthquake struck just after 3:30 a.m. Wednesday. The quake was felt across a broad section of central Italy, including in Rome.

A powerful earthquake toppled homes, churches and shops in a wide swath of medieval towns in central Italy on Wednesday, killing more than 150 people and injuring hundreds of others, according to Italy's civil protection agency. Dozens more were missing or feared dead from the magnitude-6.2 earthquake and a series of aftershocks that jolted Umbria, Lazio and Le Marche, three regions 80 to 100 miles northeast of Rome. Rescue teams using bulldozers, and aided by townspeople with their bare hands, pored through the piles of rock, metal and wood late Wednesday, looking for possible survivors. Police near the town of Ascoli listened to cries for help from under the rubble but lacked the heavy equipment to move the rocks, according the RAI radio. “We need chain saws, shears to cut iron bars and jacks to remove beams.

Oh my stars! There’s an Earth-like planet right next door It’s in the zone that could sustain life Traci Watson

Special for USA TODAY

An Earth-size planet that could boast water, even an ocean, has been found circling the star nearest our sun, hinting that the conditions for life could exist next door. Researchers have identified a plethora of planets outside our solar system that both resemble Earth in size and dwell in the

“habitable zone,” where liquid water is possible. No other Earth-like planet outside our solar system is as close to humans and their observatories as this new world, making it the best possible hunting ground for living organisms. The find, reported in a study published Wednesday in Nature, has scientists reaching for superlatives. “An absolutely amazing discovery,” says Victoria Meadows of the University of Washington. “This will be the most accessible, closest planet in the habitable zone to our solar system.” “The excitement is that it’s

around the closest star to our sun,” says Rory Barnes, also of the University of Washington. Announced after a search by astronomers from around the world, the planet circles a small star called Proxima Centauri. That star, though invisible to the naked eye, is 4.2 light-years — about 25 trillion miles — from Earth, making it our nearest stellar neighbor. The specs of the planet, called Proxima b, sound much like Earth’s. It is 1.3 times the mass of the Earth or bigger. It is probably rocky, like Earth, and not a Jupiter-like ball of gas. And it’s just

the right distance from its star that it would be warm enough for liquid water to pool on the surface, assuming the planet has an atmosphere. Of course, it may not have an atmosphere, a prerequisite for life. Tipping the odds against life a bit, Proxima b’s star blasts it with far more high-energy radiation than our planet receives from the sun. A space mission to reach exoplanets won’t be ready until the “coming centuries,” says David Armstrong of Britain’s University of Warwick. “But the first one we’ll send it to will be this.”

Digital tools provide ticket back in time Jefferson Graham

@jeffersongraham USA TODAY

LOS ANGELES We all know how journalism has changed in the digital age — we don’t wait for the morning or afternoon paper anymore to get the latest news. It’s available in the moment, around the clock. What about the logistics of writing a book about historical subjects? How do you use digital tools to go back in time without stepping on a plane? I posed this question recently to Jeffrey Toobin, the senior CNN legal analyst and staff writer for The New Yorker, who is out on the book tour circuit plugging his American Heiress tome. It’s about the abduction of heiress Patricia Hearst in 1974 and its aftermath. I know something about what it’s like to go back in time for book research. My first two books were about TV game shows and how Las Vegas became a gambling and entertainment mecca, both primarily set in the 1950s and 1960s. I wrote them in the late 1980s. I remember many trips to university libraries far from home, reading through tedious reams of

Scores of buildings were reduced to dusty piles of masonry in communities close to the epicenter. pasta made with bacon-like bits of cured pork jowl, pecorino cheese and tomato. The town was set to host its 50th spaghetti festival Saturday. The first quake struck around 3:30 a.m., collapsing walls and ceilings of homes and trapping people as they slept. It was followed by at least 11 temblors in what the seismological center described as a “high aftershock rate.”

Pirozzi said the quake knocked out power to the community, hampering communication with emergency responders. The remote town was virtually cut off after a bridge connecting it to the rest of the region was damaged. The hospital was also badly hit, forcing the wounded and stretcher-bearers to gather in front of the building. Ambulances then transferred patients to other towns.

In Accumoli, Mayor Stefano Petrucci said at least 2,500 people were displaced, including 2,000 summer season tourists. “We will try to assist them all, but you’d better leave the country,” he told them, according to ANSA. In Pescara and Arquata del Tronto, two tent cities were being erected to accommodate the displaced, ANSA reported. Civil defense teams rounded up camp stoves and generators. Other

How Haight kept his secret so long unclear v CONTINUED FROM 1B

“I am truly sorry for the pain I have caused my wife and family,” Haight said in a second statement Wednesday. “On their behalf, I ask that their privacy be respected during this difficult time.” SECURITY RISKS

How Haight, the married father of four adult children who has held a succession of increasingly influential jobs, maintained his intimate secret is unclear. His superiors promoted him three times since his affair with Armstrong began. Screeners of officials for security clearances — particularly those trusted with access to the nation’s most sensitive information like Haight — scrutinize financial and family stability to guard against vulnerability to bribes or blackmail. If an adversary such as Russia had learned of Haight’s affair and sexual adventures, he would have been a prime target for blackmail, said four senior government officials who were not authorized to speak publicly about the matter. Russia, one of the officials said, aggressively intercepts telephone calls. An investigative report showed that from June to November 2015, Haight used his government cellphone to make 84 private calls for more than 1,400 minutes of conversation. Further, testimony showed that Haight

frequently left his office in Stuttgart, Germany, because it was in a building designed for secure communication, a Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility, or SCIF. At European Command, he was in charge of the military’s plans and operations to confront Russia’s increasing aggression in Eastern Europe. “When MG Haight disappeared and someone needed to get ahold of him, (name redacted) knew to check the hallway, outside of the SCIF, where he was usually on his cellphone,” the report noted. Haight, in his job overseeing operations at European Command and previously as a top aide to Adm. Mike Mullen, the former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, would have had access to the most sensitive national security information. Indeed, Haight was a key adviser to Mullen at the time of the raid in 2011 that killed Osama bin Laden and during the peak of U.S. involvement in Afghanistan. Haight’s case underscores the military’s problem with misconduct among its most senior officers. In November, Defense Secretary Ash Carter abruptly fired his senior military adviser, Army Lt. Gen. Ron Lewis, for personal misconduct; the Pentagon inspector general continues to investigate Lewis. In March, the Air Force fired one of its top officers, Lt. Gen. John Hesterman, after

investigators determined that he had sent sexually suggestive emails to a married female officer.

its flamboyant owner “Fat Leonard” Glenn Francis. A senior Army official indicated that incidents of misconduct are rare among the service’s 1,000 senior leaders. Less than 6% of allegations made against senior leaders were substantiated in fiscal year 2015, said the official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because officials were not authorized to comment publicly. Haight was removed promptly, reprimanded and effectively forced to retire after the al-

legations against him were substantiated, the official said. HOW IT BEGAN

The inspector general’s report dates the affair to Feb. 12, 2005, when Armstrong worked as a contractor in Iraq handling the remains of combat fatalities. Smitten after seeing Haight at a base, she emailed every David Haight in the Army directory, saying he had a “terrific smile.” Eventually, she found the right Haight — Lt. Col. David B. Haight, commander of the 2nd Ranger Battalion, elite troops who accompanied commandos on sensitive, dangerous raids. Haight is a distant relation of an apostle of the Church of Latter Day Saints. Haight eventually responded to Armstrong’s email, and they hit it off. Haight’s honesty and sociability were attractive, she said, but he had a “hard part,” a mark left by the war. They quickly became romantic, and he promised her they would spend their lives together after he left the military, she said. Armstrong’s account of their affair is backed up by emails she said the two shared, indicating trysts involving other women, other couples and encounters with strangers at swingers’ clubs. Armstrong’s name is redacted in the Army inspector general’s report about Haight. She identified herself to USA TODAY as his longtime girlfriend and swinging companion.

homeless families were sheltered in gyms and public buildings. A geologist in Poland said the earthquake was caused by the slow but constant under-surface movement of the African Plate toward Europe. Jerzy Zaba of the Silesian University in Katowice in southern Poland said Wednesday that a wedge-shaped front of the African Plate presses into the Eurasian Plate in the Adriatic Sea region and pushes into the neighboring regions, such as Italy’s Apennine Mountains. The tension that accumulates leads to a sudden release in the form of under-surface rock movement that causes earth tremors. Zaba told the Polish PAP agency that the African Plate is moving northward at the speed of up to 2 inches a year. The most deadly Italian earthquake in the 20th century struck in 1908, when a quake followed by a tsunami killed about 80,000 people in Reggio Calabria and Sicily.

U.S.-BACKED AFGHAN FORCES RACE TO RESCUE AMERICAN UNIVERSITY Guard killed, 19 people wounded; school also was attacked Aug. 7 John Bacon @jmbacon USA TODAY

Afghan special forces backed by U.S. military advisers swept a college campus in Kabul on Wednesday after a militant attack rocked the the American University of Afghanistan. A university security guard died in the hour-long attack of explosions and gunfire. Emergency Hospital in Kabul treated 19 wounded teachers and students. Special forces teams combed the school, evacuating terrified students. Few details on the attackers were immediately available. One or two gunmen, possibly wearing suicide vests, stormed the Kabul campus around 7 p.m. local time, Interior Ministry spokesman Sediq Sediqqi told Reuters. Scores of students and

foreign professors barricaded themselves in classrooms, Sediqqi said. “Many students jumped from the second floor. Some broke their legs, and some hurt their head trying to escape,” Abdullah Fahimi, a student who escaped, told Reuters. He said he injured his ankle making the leap. CBS journalist Ahmad Mukhtar tweeted that he and some friends escaped the attack, but several other friends and professors were trapped. AP photographer Massoud Hossaini said he was in class with 15 students when he heard an explosion. “I went to the window to see what was going on, and I saw a person in normal clothes outside. He shot at me and shattered the glass,” Hossaini said. He said he fell on glass, cutting his hand. Some students barricaded themselves into the classroom, the target of at least two grenades, he said. Hossaini said he and about nine students fled through an emergency gate. “As we were running, I saw

someone lying on the ground face down. They looked like they had been shot in the back,” he said. Pentagon spokesman Adam Stump told USA TODAY that “a small number of Resolute Support advisers” assisted at the scene in a non-combat role. Resolute Support is a NATO-led mission that trains and supports Afghan forces. The school was the scene of an apparent terror attack Aug. 7, when two faculty members were abducted at gunpoint. The school was shut down, and a review of its security was conducted. The school resumed its normal operations a few days later. The teachers, an American and an Australian, still are missing. The university, which has 1,700 students, is an internationally supported, private university founded a decade ago in Kabul. “AUAF is dedicated to providing a world-class higher education that prepares students from Afghanistan and the region to be tomorrow’s leaders,” the school says on its website.

Afghan security forces respond to an attack on the campus of the American University in the Afghan capital of Kabul on Wednesday.

WHITE HOUSE: EPIPEN PRICES RAISE MORAL QUESTIONS

The White House weighed in on a controversy over the skyrocketing cost of the EpiPen allergy shot, saying unscrupulous pricing practices raise serious moral questions for pharmaceutical companies. White House spokesman Josh Earnest said companies that develop and market lifesaving medication “often do real damage to their reputation by being greedy and jacking up prices in a way that victimizes vulnerable Americans.” Though he said he wouldn’t “specifically second-guess the pricing strategy or the business practices” of any one company, Earnest said the price increase “raises significant questions, even moral questions, in the minds of a lot of people.” — Gregory Korte ZIKA VIRUS MAY STAY IN BABIES’ BLOOD FOR MONTHS

The Zika virus may linger in the blood of an infected baby for more than two months, according to a new study from Brazil that raises concerns about the potential of the virus to continue in-

flicting damage to an infant’s brain even after birth. The study shows that Zika can cause serious harm to babies even if their mothers are infected relatively late in pregnancy. Although Zika is known to cause devastating birth defects in babies — including microcephaly, in which infants are born with abnormally small heads and, in most cases, incomplete brain development — studies have suggested the greatest risk occurs when women are infected early in pregnancy. In this case, the baby’s mother developed Zika-like symptoms at 26 weeks of pregnancy, at the end of the second trimester, according to the study, published Wednesday in the New England Journal of Medicine. The woman gave birth to an apparently healthy boy, who had normal weight and length, in January. An MRI of the baby’s brain, however, showed that his brain tissue had shrunk, but the fluidfilled spaces between the folds of his brain had grown larger. The baby also had calcifications in his brain, or areas of scar tissue showing where the brain had been injured. — Liz Szabo

Syrian rebel factions said they were in control of Jarablus hours after Turkey sent tanks and special forces over its southern border with Syria on Wednesday to capture an Islamic State stronghold and push Kurdish forces from the area. The Syrian opposition forces said they were still fighting small pockets of Islamic State militants. U.S. warplanes supported Turkish troops and vetted Syrian opposition forces, according to a Defense official who was not authorized to speak publicly about the operation. The offensive came as Vice President Biden arrived in Turkey for talks with President Recep Tayyip Erdogan. Turkish artillery launched intense fire on Jarablus, and Turkish warplanes bombed Islamic State targets in the town, according to the state-run Anadolu Agency. Turkey vowed to rid Islamic State militants from its borders after a suicide bombing last weekend at a Kurdish wedding that killed at least 54 people. Erdogan spokesman Ibrahim Kalin tweeted that the operation aimed to cleanse Turkey’s border of “all terrorist elements,” according to the Hurriyet Daily News. Erdogan has complained of U.S. support for Syrian Kurdish fighters battling Islamic State militants. Turkey considers Kurdish groups fighting for independence terrorists. In Ankara, Biden said Kurdish forces must pull back across the Euphrates River. “They cannot — will not — under any circumstance get American support if they do not keep that commitment,” Biden said.

Q: Why have trade deals become so controversial in both parties in this year’s presidential election? A: The challenge that we’re facing is that somehow trade agreements are getting caught up in terms of what’s happened in terms of globalization, automation, digitization, which are factors that we’re not going to be able to reverse. ... What we’re trying to do with trade agreements is put the United States on a more competitive footing. What’s happening is that people are being told that’s not right, that’s not good. And I get the challenge, that we understand that growth is not being appreciated or felt equally among American citizens and that some people are being hurt in some instances. ... What’s happening is we’re conflating a number of things, and trade is taking a beating because of it. But it’s not really right. We cannot close the doors to America and assume that if all we do is sell to ourselves, that’s a sufficient marketplace. Q: Can the Trans Pacific Partnership win congressional approval before President

Pritzker

“Trade agreements are always difficult to get done, at any Congress, at any time. ... The other thing we need to remember is that the status quo is not sustainable.” Commerce Secretary Penny Pritzker

Q: But how? In a lame-duck session? A: The president has said that he sees the lame duck as the opportunity to get this done, and I don’t see what gets in the way of that. Look, trade agreements are always difficult to get done, at any Congress, at any time. ... The other thing we need to remember is that the status quo is not sustainable. China is out making its own multilateral trade agreements in the region, and those trade agreements are not to the benefit of the American worker. Q: When Hillary Clinton was secretary of State, she called the TPP “the gold standard” of trade deals; now she opposes it. Was that disappointing? A: I don’t agree with that position, obviously. ... She has talked about what should we do to strengthen enforcement of the agreement, and I actually think Congress has taken some steps to strengthen our hand at the Department of Commerce and the hand of the U.S. trade representative to enhance enforcement. Maybe there are a few other things that we could be doing. ... As we move forward with implementation, there’s opportunities also to adjust so that were getting the full benefit of this agreement. Q: Enough to change her mind, if she’s elected? A: You know, I can’t speak for the candidate. I really don’t know. What I know is this is the highest standard trade agreement that the United States has ever negotiated, and ... it would be a real shame for us not to proceed with it. NOW SHOWING AT USATODAY.COM

With stock indexes in record territory and a 71⁄2-year bull market chugging along, investors are worried. Why should they be, you ask? The U.S. employment market is back to churning out 200,000plus jobs each month, and the real estate market is filled with willing buyers of new homes. But risks remain in a market that is no longer cheap. “It doesn’t take a lot to derail the market; if anything goes wrong, swings in the stock market can be pretty pronounced,” says Savita Subramanian, equity and quantitative strategist at Bank of America Merrill Lynch. “Our call is for a 30% chance of a meaningful correction of up to 20%; it’s not our base case, but it’s a reasonable case.” Here are five things that could derail the stock market rally:

OIL RALLY DOESN’T STICK

The $45 to $50 level seen in the most recent rebound rally in the oil patch might not stick, with lower prices again spooking investors. U.S.-produced crude was down nearly 2% early Wednesday to $47.20 per barrel. “Sub-$40 per barrel oil impacts everything,” says Randy Warren, chief investment officer at Warren Financial Service. “It creates problems for frackers, hurts employment and negatively impacts the ability of energy companies to make profits.” Some market bulls are counting on the energy sector going from a big drag on the earnings of companies in the Standard & Poor’s 500 index to a net positive in the second half of this year and next. “Oil below $40 would put that assumption into question,” Warren says.

The market is assuming Democrat Hillary Clinton will win the November election. But it may be too early to count out Republican Donald Trump. Polls vary widely. A sampling of recent surveys, which all show Clinton in the lead, puts the two candidates as few as 4 points apart and as many as 12. If polls after Labor Day show Clinton with only a 2- or 3-point lead, “it could inject a mood of uncertainty into markets, which seemingly are convinced Trump can’t win,” says Greg Valliere, chief global strategist at Horizon Investments and respected political and policy market analyst. A Trump presidency, he says, would raise fears of a trade war with China, economic policy uncertainty and geopolitical instability. “She’s (Clinton) still the favorite, but it’s premature to anoint her,” Valliere warns, saying investors will have to wait until after the first debate Sept. 26 before “reaching any definitive conclusions.”

Amazon may be taking steps to move its grocery business into new territory: drive-up grocery hubs, which would give it a new slice of the highly competitive, $800 billion grocery market. Planning documents and local business-news outlets point to three possible locations for the “click and collect” sites: San Carlos and Sunnyvale, Calif., as well as Amazon’s hometown of Seattle. The new locations would allow customers to buy online and then pick up the groceries, eliminating the need for Amazon to deliver perishable items. They would complement Amazon’s current grocery offerings, Ama-

You can shop at home or at your desk, and then on the way home from work or picking up the kids you just swing by and they bring you out your groceries,” said Phil Lempert, a food marketing expert based in Los Angeles, who did not have direct knowledge of Amazon’s plans.

Pharmaceutical giant Pfizer continued its buying spree in a deal to acquire rights to anti-infection drugs from United Kingdom drug giant AstraZeneca. Pfizer said Wednesday that it would pay $550 million upfront and potentially a billion more, plus royalties, for rights to anti-

infection drugs, which include antibiotics and other treatments, that have reached the late stages of clinical development. The drugs are designed to stop infections from spreading or kill them outright. The deal comes two days after the company acquired cancer drug maker Medivation for about $14 billion. The major pharmaceutical companies are regularly hunting through growth by acquisition. The AstraZeneca deal gives Pfizer the rights to several drugs, including Zavicefta, which has been approved by the European

Cable channel keeps focus on music, sheds its ‘redneck’ brand Patrick Ryan USA TODAY

CMT is flipping the script on its original programming. For years, the cable network has been TV’s hub for country music videos, live-music events and down-home reality shows such as Redneck Island and Party Down South. But CMT is in the midst of a major rebranding, which started this summer with the debut of its first scripted original, the Billy Ray Cyrus sitcom Still the King, and continues into next year with a slew of other scripted offerings. First and foremost is soapy music series Nashville, which ABC canceled after four seasons in May before CMT swooped in to revive the low-rated drama. With its principal cast intact, led by Connie Britton and Hayden Panettiere, Nashville returns Jan. 5 with a two-hour premiere (9 ET/PT). After ABC gave Nashville the ax, the call from CMT was “pretty immediate,” says Chris Selak, executive VP of studio Lionsgate Television. The series, which follows an aging country star (Britton), will switch networks with minimal changes. “In terms of (CMT) being the right home, it always made sense. They’re going to be able to reach out to core fans while also getting the word out to new ones.” For CMT, the idea is to “not only use Nashville to bring viewers to the channel, but as a spark plug to ignite interest in all of our other (shows),” says programming chief Jayson Dinsmore. That includes Million Dollar Quartet, which will swivel its hips onto the channel as an eight-part limited series in March. Adapted from the Broadway musical, the Memphis-set drama will chart the rise of music legends including Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash and Jerry Lee Lewis, guided by rock ’n’ roll godfather Sam Phillips (Chad Michael Murray). Murray (One Tree Hill) describes Quartet as “a highbrow, Boardwalk Empire-meets-Mad Men-style period drama,” set during Hollywood’s Golden Age at the onset of the civil rights movement. “It was fascinating to come in and see this world from their points of view: from Elvis at 17, Johnny Cash at 19, and Sam at 29 coming to Memphis,” Murray says. Viewers will “find a new respect for these young artists who didn’t see color back then.” A second season of King will follow later in the spring. The comedy, which stars Cyrus as a washed-up singer, notched CMT’s highest-rated premiere for an original series and averaged 602,000 viewers last season.

Connie Britton and Charles Esten star in Nashville, which was snapped up by CMT after it was canceled following four seasons on ABC.

Historically, there might have been a bit of a perception that we were Southern and quite honestly ‘redneck,’ but we are certainly not that. For the future, we’re headed toward a much CMT clearer, cleaner brand.”

Amy Schumer seems to conquer everything she tries: standup, TV (Inside Amy Schumer), movies (Trainwreck) and now, books. Her memoir The Girl With the Lower Back Tattoo (Gallery Books), released on Aug. 16, lands at No. 4 on USA TODAY’s BestSelling Books list. Schumer, who received a multimilliondollar advance for the book, is just the latest female comedian to do well on USA TODAY’s list.

Tina Fey (Bossypants), Lena Dunham (Not That Kind of Girl) and Amy Poehler (Yes Please) all made it to No. 5. Mindy Kaling’s best showing was No. 4 with Why Not Me? And Chelsea Handler, who has had four USA TODAY best sellers, is queen of them all with Chelsea Chelsea Bang Bang, which hit No. 2. Schumer’s publicity for The Girl With the Lower Back Tattoo included an interview with USA TODAY’s Andrea Mandell, who described the book as “a funny, highly revealing collection of

memories, relationship rehashes and career experiences.” In it, Schumer talks about her mother’s affair with the father of her childhood best friend, as well as the night her boyfriend took her virginity without asking when she was a teenager.

The title of Schumer’s book cleverly plays off The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, the No. 1 thriller by Stieg Larsson. And she’s tapping into the ubiquitous “Girl” book title trend, as well (see Gone Girl, The Girl on the Train, The Girls ...).

HIGH SCHOOL SEASON PREVIEWS

The faces of fall Seabury building on success

Summer abroad gives Svi boost By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

After some strong seasons last year, Bishop Seabury Academy’s fall sports programs are confident they can take the next step during the upcoming year. Each team will begin its season in the next week. Here is a look at what all of Seabury’s teams expect out of the upcoming season:

Third-year Kansas Jayhawk Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk, who still is just 19 years old, returned to Lawrence recently from more than two months overseas, training in his native Ukraine and playing at the Under-20 European Championships in Finland. It marked the second consecutive summer Mykhailiuk that he spent a substantial part of the summer n Champiaway from ons Classic his KU teamrenewed, mates, with pitting KU the Ameragainst ican-born Duke, Jayhawks Kentucky playing in or Michigan South Korea State each a year ago year until and Mykhail2019. iuk in Europe Page 3C this summer. Not to worry, Svi said Wednesday during a session with local media members at Allen Fieldhouse. He said the time away did not hurt his bond with his Kansas teammates. “Not really, because we’ve been texting each other and we’ve been FaceTiming,” he said. “They’ve been watching me and I’ve been watching them. It’s not that hard once you get used to it.” Getting used to it is something the 6-foot-8 junior guard has learned a thing or two about during his first two years in Lawrence. After playing in 26 games and averaging 11.2 minutes per game as a 16and 17-year-old freshman, Mykhailiuk barely moved the needle during Year 2. His minutes-per-game average only went up to 12.8 and although the rest of

Freshman instant hit on KU offensive line By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

When true freshmen arrived on campus this summer, Kansas offensive line coach Zach Yenser greeted the new blood in his unit with a straightforward message: “Don’t come in here with the mindset that you’re gonna redshirt.” Apparently newcomer Hakeem Adeniji latched onto that piece of advice and blocked with it. Fresh out of Garland, Texas, Ad-

competitive players into less assertive ones. Such a storyline never came close to materializing with Adeniji. Although he has only been at KU a few months, the freshman’s position coach already trusts him enough that a year off for development isn’t an option.

QBs vulnerable to early season injuries By Steve Megargee Associated Press

Some of the biggest losses in college football’s opening week likely won’t be reflected on the scoreboard. Several teams in recent seasons have lost starting quarterbacks the first couple of weeks and spent the remainder of the year dealing with QB issues. Air Force, Boston College, BYU, Kansas State, Notre Dame and Syracuse all lost quarterbacks to season-ending injuries by mid-September last year. Ohio State won the 2014 national title despite losing its top two quarterbacks to injuries. “They’re the only position that takes punishment without being able to give it back, and (they’re) being in exposed positions,” Florida State coach Jimbo Fisher said. “I’m telling you, if you’re not tough, you can’t play quarterback.” But since being tough can’t always keep a quarterback on the field, the emphasis to have depth at the most important position on the team seems to have increased with the recent rash of early season injuries. An AP analysis of all the Football Bowl Subdivision programs shows that only about 38 percent started the same quarterback in every game last season, whether due to injuries or performance. Florida State uses GPS technology to measure athletes’ performance and monitor their health. Fisher said the data revealed quarterbacks had the third-highest workloads on the team “with the torque on their body with their legs, feet and all that stuff.” It all adds up to teams taking steps to get backup quarterbacks more prepared. Tennessee offensive coordinator Mike DeBord said the Volunteers’ reserve quarterbacks get more reps in training camp now than he remembers backups receiving at his previous stops. DeBord also said backup college quarterbacks generally get more reps than backups in the NFL, where he was an assistant from 2008-12. “We talk about what if

Hope Solo receives 6-month suspension The Associated Press

Chicago — U.S. women’s goalkeeper Hope Solo was suspended Wednesday for six months by U.S. Soccer for disparaging comments about Sweden following the Americans’ early departure from the Rio Olympics. Solo called the Swedes “a bunch of cowards” for focusing on defense rather than attacking the threetime defending champion U.S. team. Sweden ousted the U.S. 4-3 on penalty kicks following a 1-1 draw in a quarterfiSolo nal match. U.S. Soccer President Sunil Gulati said Solo’s comments were “unacceptable and do not meet the standard of conduct we require from our National Team players.” “Beyond the athletic arena, and beyond the results, the Olympics celebrate and represent the ideals of fair play and respect,” Gulati said. “We expect all of our representatives to honor those principles, with no exceptions.” The 35-year-old Solo, who was previously suspended for 30 days early in 2015 for her conduct, will not be eligible for selection to the national team until February.

In the end, his balky left knee wouldn’t allow him to do either. The 17-time major champion was in Manhattan on Wednesday to talk about playing tennis next year at the new Laver Cup team event. But for the first time since 1999, he’s not preparing for the U.S. Open. Federer had an arthroscopic procedure on the knee in February to repair torn cartilage, then later missed the French Open because of a bad back. He hasn’t played since losing in the semifinals at Wimbledon and announced in late July that he would sit out the rest of the season.

New York — U.S. swimmer James Feigen apologized for the “serious distraction” he and three teammates caused at a gas station during the Rio Olympics, saying he omitted facts in his statement to police. Feigen says in a statement posted Tuesday on the website of his lawyer in Austin, Texas, that “I omitted the facts that we urinated behind the building and that Ryan Lochte pulled a poster off the wall.” He maintains the group didn’t force their way into a bathroom and a gun was pointed at them. Feigen says he paid the driver the cab fare and “As I walked away, the man with the gun pointed it at me and my teammate and ordered us, in Portuguese, to sit.” Feigen was pulled off an airplane last week by police for more questioning. He says he paid a fine of $10,800 for the return of his passport.

The Jayhawks will play Duke in this year’s Champions Classic at 8:30 p.m. Central on Nov. 15 at Madison Square Garden in New York City. “It’s obviously the top event of the regular season,” KU associate athletic director Larry Keating, the Jayhawks’ schedule maker, told ESPN. “You usually have four of the top 10 and it should be that way again. No one has ever thought of not doing it. Everyone knows the value of it. The four fan bases can get to all cities where the event takes place. It has been everything we thought it would be and more.” Kansas will face Kentucky in 2017 in Chicago, Michigan State in 2018 in Indianapolis and Duke in 2019 in New York. KU is 1-4 in the event with its lone victory against Duke in 2013. Michigan State beat Kansas, 79-73, last year in Chicago.

The Seahawks will be led by returning seniors, Jack Edmonds on the boys team and Gretchen Ohlmacher for the girls, both four-year varsity runners. “(She) has a new fire under her to sweep up some medals this year,” third-year coach Kara Schrader said of Ohlmacher.

Now, second-year coach Ivo Ivanov believes his team can make a big leap forward, led by returning forwards Chris Cho and Amir Shami, midfielders Austin Gaumer and Thomas DiZerega, defenders Tommy Warden and Alfonso Martello, and goalkeeper Hank Mitchell. “We are returning the core players from last year’s successful first season,” Ivanov said. “Hank Mitchell has made a lot of progress on goal from last year. The team has practiced with a lot of intensity and self-motivation. The newcomers bring club experience and will be able to contribute immediately.” Some of those new-

ers, the Seahawks are hoping to receive a boost from Sophia Ostlund, Maia Tilly, Gabriella Aubel, Britain Hamm, Sabrina Eicher and Elizabeth Scarbrough. “Seabury volleyball 2016 is a team of unity and hard work,” Geronymo said. The Seahawks will start the season against Atchison at 6 p.m. Tuesday at Seabury.

said he neither goes the wrong way on play calls nor gets beat around the edge. “That’s what’s been so refreshing about Hakeem,” his coach marveled, wishing he could take credit for it but instead deferring to the youngster’s prep coaches. “You don’t find that very often as an 18-year-old.” At Garland High, Adeniji played both offensive tackle and defensive end for Jeff Jordan, now KU’s director of personnel, and lettered in basketball and track. Obviously his athleticism has much to do with his quick ascension at Kansas. Still, his new head

comers expected to contribute are Freddy Comparato, Oliver Frankenfeld, Max Easter and Sam Bayliss. The Seahawks will begin the season on the road against Heritage Christian at 4:30 p.m. Tuesday. “As complete unknowns, we were able to sneak up on some teams last year,” Ivanov said. “This will not happen again. The element of surprise evaporated last year as we compiled a winning season and won against bigger 4A teams. Our schedule is loaded this year.”

his numbers increased as well, none of them produced the kind of chatter that would include the words “breakout season.” That, Mykhailiuk said, is what he hopes the 2016-17 season will be for him, and a big reason he believes it can happen comes from what he gained this summer, when he led Ukraine in scoring at the Euro Championships. “It was good for me that I got my confidence back,” he said. “And I really started playing better, and I really started taking more advantages and creating more shots and just being aggressive.” Asked to elaborate about where his confidence went, Mykhailiuk pointed to limited playing time and his own inconsistent nature. “These last two years I didn’t play very much and, you know, when players don’t play, their confidence gets low,” he said. “This summer, I played a lot and I played good and that’s what got my confidence back.” Life, both in the States and abroad, is different for Mykhailiuk these days than it was when he first arrived on the KU campus before the 2014-15 season. He’s more comfortable as a college student in the heart of the Midwest and he also feels like his time at Kansas has helped him make a name for himself back home, where tensions between Ukraine and Russia have made for some scary times for his home country. Svi and his family in Cherkasy, Ukraine, have been fortunate in that regard, avoiding the volatile political realities that exist elsewhere in the country.

“Yeah, it is (scary),” Svi said. “But in my home city it’s not really bad, people just living their lives. It’s pretty quiet. ... Everybody knows me more than they used to know me before I got here. I didn’t really spend time going out because we would have a lot of practices, two times a day, so I didn’t do much.” That was off the court. On the court, Mykhailiuk adjusted to being the main man. He had plays run for him, created both for himself and his teammates and even saw his shooting numbers suffer because of both more attention by opposing defenses and more risks on his part. “I needed to score,” he said. “That was my main option.” Even without gaudy statistics thus far at Kansas, Mykhailiuk has remained one of the top pro prospects on KU’s roster. He has been a mainstay on NBA mock draft sites during the past couple of seasons and enters his junior year as the No. 27 pick in the first round on DraftExpress.com’s most recent 2017 NBA mock draft. Mykhailiuk wants more, though. He wants to help the Jayhawks win as many games as possible. And he would not mind being a little bit bigger part of the reason they do. “A lot of guys left (after last year),” Svi said when asked why he returned to Kansas instead of testing the NBA waters. “And I think the team’s gonna be really good this year and I’m gonna help my team win. It’s been like family to me, like home, and I just wanted to spend one more year here.” Mykhailiuk on Wednesday echoed what KU coach Bill Self said last weekend about him being in better shape at this point than he was a year ago. At 203 pounds, down four from his playing

coach, David Beaty, also a Garland native, raves about Adeniji’s smarts, as well. Sure, he was named to the Dallas Morning News’ All-Area Top 100, but Adeniji did so while enrolled in Garland High’s international baccalaureate program, taking advanced honors classes. Beaty said the freshman lineman’s intelligence and manhood showed up when Adeniji Yenser plugged him in at various spots on the line and Adeniji handled it like a battlescarred veteran. “You can get on the

field as a young’n if you’re smart and you’re mature,” Beaty said. “I think it’s the last thing that gets lost. There are some smart guys that are not mature. He’s a smart, mature guy. Doesn’t say much. I think he just really loves the game, and that’s what’s helping him.” KU doesn’t make freshmen available for interviews, but senior left tackle D’Andre Banks didn’t mind joining his coaches in lauding Adeniji’s prowess. “When I was 17, 18 years old my footwork was no-

5-star PG sets visits Trae Young, a 6-foot1, 170-pound point guard ranked 14th in the 2017 recruiting class announced the dates of four of his official visits Wednesday on Twitter. Young will visit Kansas the weekend of Oct. 21-23 and his trip to Lawrence will follow visits to Oklahoma (Sept. 16-18), Texas Tech (Sept. 29-Oct. 1) and Kentucky (Oct. 14-16). Young, who lists KU among his six finalists, did not include visit dates for Washington and Oklahoma State. Provided he fulfills the four other dates, NCAA rules dictate that Young only will be able to make an official visit to either Washington or Oklahoma State but not both. The five-star point guard from Norman, Okla., has long been a target of the Jayhawks and has kept Kansas in the mix because of KU’s tradition and reputation. “To have the chance to play somewhere like Allen Fieldhouse is a great opportunity,” Young told Rivals.com in late July. “Coach Self uses and develops guards really well and gets them ready for the league.” Classic extended to 2019 One of the biggest events in the Kansas men’s basketball nonconference schedule will continue for at least the next three seasons.

Although Yenser admitted every offensive lineman would redshirt in a perfect world, he maintained he has the utmost confidence in Adeniji to play on the right side, at tackle or even guard. “You look at him, he’s 270 pounds, 275, and the guy, he plays with incredible pad level, incredible leverage with his hands,” Yenser said, “and he does every thing you ask him to do.”

MAJOR-LEAGUE ROUNDUP

KC’s 9-game winning streak ends The Associated Press

Interleague Marlins 3, Royals 0 Miami — The ball kept falling the Royals’ way during their nine-game winning streak, and that changed in the ninth inning Wednesday. When Alcides Escobar pulled a liner toward the hole on the left side of the infield, shortstop Adeiny Hechavarria made a spectacular leaping, backhanded catch. The play short-circuited a comeback bid by the Royals, who lost to the Miami Marlins 3-0. “That changed the game,” Escobar said. “I hit that ball really good. When I saw it, I said, ‘Oh! That’s a great play.’” Hechavarria’s catch came after a leadoff single by Alex Gordon. Kansas City went on to load the bases against Fernando Rodney before he retired Christian Colon for his 25th save and eighth for Miami. That ended the Royals’ longest winning streak since June 2014. Miami’s Jose Fernandez pitched seven innings and shook off calf cramps. Fernandez (137) grimaced after retiring Colon with his ninth strikeout to end the seventh. “I was cramping for the last five pitches,” Fernandez said. “I was sweating and changed my uniform twice. Sweating, sweating. The last pitch, when I finished I felt the cramp and I was, ‘Oooowwwww.’” Fernandez’s nine strikeouts increased his season total to 213, breaking the Marlins record of 209 set by Ryan Dempster in 2000. Fernandez allowed six hits and won for the first time since July 23 to snap his threegame losing streak, a career worst. The Royals went 0 for 8 with runners in scoring position against Fernandez. They loaded the bases in the second, but Fernandez escaped by retiring Paulo Orlando and Colon. Their first two batters singled in the sixth, but Gordon struck out and Escobar bounced into a double play.
